Chapter 165 Gu Zhengyuan and his wife have a grudge Gu's
house.
Hearing that his eldest grandson was coming to visit him, Grandpa Gu got up before dawn.
At ten o'clock, Gu Siyuan had not come yet. Worried that Gu Siyuan could not find the Gu family, Grandpa Gu asked his son to pick him up.
However, the door of the Lu family was locked, and Gu Zhengyuan had no choice but to return.
When he returned home, he saw Gu Siyuan was also approaching the door of the Gu family.
"Siyuan, you are here." Gu Zhengyuan greeted him enthusiastically.
"Yeah."
Gu Siyuan carried a cloth bag in his hand and entered the Gu family with Gu Zhengyuan.
Grandpa Gu, An Li and her son, and the three aunts of the Gu family were all there.
Grandpa Gu was very happy about the arrival of his eldest grandson.
Gu Siyuan called his grandfather and three aunts, and when he saw An Li, he pretended to be surprised and said, "We have met before. I am so sorry. If I had known you were your aunt, I would have agreed to your request."
Grandpa Gu asked, "What did you agree to?"
Gu Siyuan said, "Aunt wanted to introduce her niece to me, but I didn't like her, so I refused."
An Li was extremely embarrassed. She pretended not to know Gu Siyuan in front of her husband.
Gu Siyuan handed the cloth bag in his hand to An Li with a calm face.
Gu Chengze stepped forward and opened the cloth bag, exclaiming, "So many tomatoes! There are also eggplants, green peppers, and plum beans!"
Gu Chengze took out the things in the cloth bag, and the aunts of the Gu family looked over.
"Siyuan, where did you buy so many fresh vegetables?"
Gu Siyuan said, "My father gave me some vegetables, saying that these things are rare and expensive. I was thinking about grandpa and wanted him to eat more, so I brought some here."
Grandpa Gu was very happy to hear this. He patted Gu Siyuan on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, it's rare that you are thinking about me in your heart. As long as you can come to see me, I will be happy even if I don't eat them."
When Anli heard this, her face changed.
Aunt Gu said, "Zhengyuan, since you can buy vegetables, please buy some for my family to eat during the New Year."
Gu Zhengyuan was also surprised that Gu Siyuan could buy so many vegetables. He guessed that the Shen family might have asked someone to buy them for them, and said, "They are not seasonal vegetables and are not easy to buy. It will be enough for us to eat meat during the New Year."
Aunt Gu said dissatisfiedly, "It's the New Year, who doesn't want to have more food on the table? You are reluctant to help me buy some vegetables, but I'm not not giving you money." As she said that, she took out money from her pocket and handed it to Gu Zhengyuan.
Gu Zhengyuan did not take the money: "Sister, it's really hard to buy."
Aunt Gu put the money in her pocket angrily: "Siyuan said that you sent him vegetables and said that they were hard to buy. If you don't help, forget it."
Gu Zhengyuan explained: "I only sent a little to Siyuan."
Gu Siyuan did not prove for Gu Zhengyuan, and said: "Aunt, I still have two cucumbers at home. I will give them to you when I go back later."
Aunt Gu glared at her brother: "Other brothers and sisters help each other when they have something to do, but you can't rely on anything at all. You are not as sensible as Siyuan."
An Li looked at so many vegetables in front of her, thinking about Gu Zhengyuan's sending vegetables.
No wonder he only brought back so many dishes that day, it turned out that he gave them all to Gu Siyuan, and pretended to send less to Gu Siyuan.
If Gu Siyuan hadn't come home today, wouldn't he have been kept in the dark?
He said with resentment: "Yes, my elder sister has asked for it, so you can help me. Buy some more and I'll send some to my parents."
Seeing his wife's unhappy face, Gu Zhengyuan knew that she had misunderstood, so he winked at An Li and went to the kitchen.
An Li followed him to see how he would explain.
Gu Zhengyuan held his wife's hand and said, "You have to buy vegetables from the Song family. You know that I have a conflict with Song Zhigang. I also bought a little from a friend last time."
An Li didn't believe it: "Giving vegetables to your son, what's there to be afraid of? I'm not a vicious stepmother. I won't say anything about you."
"I just gave Siyuan a cucumber and a tomato. Don't you know it?"
"You don't have to explain to me. I don't care."
An Li said she didn't care, but her expression didn't say that.
Gu Zhengyuan saw that his wife didn't believe him, and left with some disappointment.
An Li was in a bad mood and didn't prepare the food carefully. The dishes were either salty or bland.
Mr. Gu ate two bites and put down his chopsticks.
Second Aunt Gu said, "Sister-in-law, even if you don't want to keep us for dinner, there's no need to waste food." Third
Aunt Gu said, "Siyuan didn't eat for free, she brought some food."
With this, she said that An Li was deliberately targeting Gu Siyuan.
Gu Zhengyuan tasted a bite of the dish, put down his chopsticks, looked at An Li, and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable today? Take a rest if you're tired."
An Li also tasted the dish and found it was indeed too salty. After hearing what her husband said, she said, "I caught a cold last night and felt a little dizzy. I always forgot whether to put salt when cooking." After
An Li said this, Grandpa Gu asked her to go inside and rest.
Grandpa Gu asked his daughters to cook again and saw Gu Siyuan eating the dish on the plate.
"Siyuan, the food is too salty, don't eat it."
Gu Siyuan said, "It's okay if it's salty, as long as you can eat enough. The salty vegetables in the countryside are much saltier than this. A bowl of salty vegetables can last for several days."
Hearing this, it can be known that Gu Siyuan's life was hard in the past, and Grandpa Gu felt very distressed.
But Gu Chengze said that the fried eggs with tomatoes were too salty and he wanted to fry a new plate.
Grandpa Gu frowned, then picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.
Seeing this, Gu Zhengyuan poured a bowl of water and placed it in front of Gu Chengze, asking him to rinse it with water before eating.
Grandpa Gu ate it all, and the Gu siblings had to follow suit.
For a while, no one spoke at the table.
…
The New Year is coming soon, Shen Jiale is having dinner at her mother's house, and she is also steaming steamed buns and frying meatballs with her mother and sister-in-law.
The three of them are making buns, and when they see Gu Siyuan coming back, they scoop up the cool water in the bucket and drink it.
He Guizhen hurried over, snatched the ladle from his hand, and poured him a glass of water.
"You kid, why are you drinking cold water in the middle of winter? It's New Year's Eve, and it would be bad if you get sick."
Gu Siyuan smiled and snatched the water scoop from He Guizhen's hand: "Mom, I'm dying of thirst, let me drink my fill."
The bucket contained spring water that Shen Jiale had quietly replaced. Shen Jiale said, "Mom, let him drink it. Young people have enough energy."
She asked Gu Siyuan, "Why are you so thirsty? Didn't you get water to drink at Gu's house?"
Gu Siyuan scooped up another scoop of water, and said while drinking, "The dishes they cook are too salty."
"Since the dishes are salty, don't eat them. Come back and eat them."
Gu Siyuan whispered, "I did it on purpose. Before I was adopted by my sister, I couldn't even eat enough. I have to let them all know." Gu
Siyuan knew that after today's incident, there would be some resentment between Gu Zhengyuan and his wife.
